NFL Network's Ian Rapoport is reporting Cincinnati Bengals QB AJ McCarron has won his grievance against the team which grants him his free agency eligibility. (Ian Rapoport on Twitter)
Fantasy Impact:
McCarron, who filed a grievance against the team during his rookie season after the Bengals placed him on the non-football injury list (NFI) following a shoulder injury that occurred away from the team and kept him out for all but two games in 2014 which would have made him a restricted free agent this offseason, has won his grievance and will instead become an unrestricted free agent when the new league year begins on March 14. As a result, McCarron will reach the open free agent market and is free to sign with a new club without restrictions. Expect teams like the Jets, Browns, and Cardinals to be in heavy pursuit of the four-year veteran once free agency kicks off in a month.
